Chapter-4 [Mourning]
*Yukiko's pov*
As I walked toward our house I had no idea where I was going to bury mom. After a little bit of walking I finally had an idea.
I walked faster changing my direction to a small clearing that i've found that no matter the time of year, it was always filled with flowers
So as I arrived at the clearing I picked an area where there were lots of red Daisy's and I started to dig by hand the grave for my mom.
After a couple hours of hard work I dug a hole deep enough to put her in.
After I did I started to slowly bury her till all the dirt was covering her. I then went to search for a decent sized stone. After I found one that looked about right, I carefully took it to the head of her grave I then took out a kunai knife and proceeded to carve into the stone.
The stone read:
"Here is the resting place of Kushina Uzumaki's body and soul. Here is also a home for the soul of Minato who was the fourth Hokage. May they both find each other in happiness. May their children never see them before there life is up. And may there village live on, protecting the future."
After that was done I just sat there, staring at the stone for hours until I heard foot steps walking up behind me.
I sat there waiting for whoever it was to just say what they wanted so they could leave.
"I don't think your mother would like to see you like this." Sarutobi said.
"Ya well, she's dead isn't she?" I snapped back with tears flowing freely down my face.
Sarutobi helped me up then he pulled me into a well needed hug. "You must be strong for Naruto, yes? If either of you ever need any help please let me or any of my family members know ok? There that's a good girl. Come now Asuma maybe a good ninja but he's hopeless with babies."
I smiled and started to walk away with him taking one last look at mom's grave for what would probably be a long while.
